What causes receding gums?

Short Answer: Receding gums can result from aggressive brushing, gum disease, or genetics.

Gums begin to pull away from teeth when irritated by bacteria or brushing too hard. Smoking and misaligned teeth can also contribute to this condition.

Early detection can prevent bone loss and the need for surgery — we’re here to help protect your gum health.
